Chapter 320 Waiting for the Rabbit

"Well, Mr. Fujino is right."

Chie Yoshino agreed with this statement: "If the formaldehyde level really exceeds the standard, I should not be dizzy from time to time, and my husband should also have some symptoms."

Speaking of this, she chuckled: "I still feel like Mr. Fujino said, it must be due to the recent pressure. Since the medicinal materials have been bought, I will try it tonight."

"But what if the construction team was negligent... and accidentally went into your bedroom with Miss Qianhui in the kitchen..."

Xiaolan actually didn't dare to make the matter clear.

I can only vaguely tell this matter.

After all, this young couple seems to be very loving. It would be a heinous crime if her suspicion caused a rift in their relationship.

But we can't just leave this matter alone...

"I think this matter is most likely not a decoration issue."

Fujino glanced at Xiaolan and naturally knew what she wanted to say.

It's just that she hasn't paid attention to the point yet.

"Isn't it a decoration problem?"

Xiaolan was confused, and after listening to Fujino's tone, asked: "Then... Fujino-senpai, do you already know what the problem is?"

"I do have some ideas."

Fujino asked Chie Yoshino: "You must have mentioned before that when the weather is cool or when school is on vacation, your head will stop dizziness, right?"

Chie Yoshino recalled: "Well, that's it..."

"Car air conditioner."

Fujino crossed his hands on his chest and said in a deep voice: "If it's a day off, there will be no problem with it at home. I will only feel dizzy when I go to Shizuoka, and it won't happen when the weather is cold. In other words, on days when there are no symptoms, These are days when there is no need to turn on the air conditioner, so the problem may lie in the car air conditioner. "

Conan on the side thought for a moment after hearing this, and suddenly realized something.

No wonder he always felt like something was wrong. It turned out to be the air conditioner!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but nodded, wondering why he hadn't thought of this.

"If you think about it carefully, it seems that every time I feel dizzy, I turn on the air conditioner."

Regarding this speculation, Chie Yoshino thought for a while, and then became confused: "But why is it a problem with the car air conditioner... There has never been any problem with that car. Is it because it has not been cleaned?"

“You’ll find out if you go and see it.”

…………

Everyone came to Yoshinoya's garage.

Chie Yoshino took out the car key and unlocked the car.

Fujino sat down in the driver's seat and looked at the air conditioner in the middle of the console.

After a pause, he put his nose to the air outlet of the air conditioner.

As soon as he smelled it, he smelled a strange smell.

Immediately afterwards, there was a feeling of dizziness.

Feeling that something was wrong, he immediately covered his nose with his sleeves and then moved away.

Fujino exited the car and said in a deep voice: "The air conditioner was drugged..."

"Drug..."

Although Conan and Xiaolan had already expected it, they were still stunned when their thoughts were confirmed.

Yuanzi and Qianhui seemed a little at a loss.

"Who is it...?"

Sonoko was about to say something, but recalling what Fujino, Xiaolan, and Conan said yesterday, she stopped talking.

At this time, Qianhui took two steps back, a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes, and she froze on the spot.

"Miss Qianhui, judging from the current situation, someone should want to murder you..."

Fujino turned around and took out his mobile phone: "Personally, I think the smell of this drug is pesticide... Do you mind if I call the police and let the police come over for testing?"

"ah……?"

At this time, Qianhui finally came to her senses: "Then let me tell my husband first..."

"It's better not to tell anyone."

"Until it is determined whether it is a harmful substance or who dropped it, anyone is suspected of committing a crime."

Fujino knew that in the current situation, the only person with a motive for committing the crime was Chie's husband, Yoshino Akio.

But even though he knew it, he didn't say anything about it.

He doesn't want to be a villain who breaks the window paper.

Let's leave this matter to the facts.

"All right……"

Qianhui nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

But some people don’t understand why Fujino didn’t let him tell his husband.

After all, it is necessary to talk to your husband about such a big matter.

I just thought about it and didn't say anything more.

She had seen this young man on TV and in newspapers before, and he seemed to be a famous detective.

For things like this, from the perspective of a flower art teacher, Fujino, the famous detective, is obviously more professional.

It is better to leave professional matters to professionals.

Fujino called the Megure Police Department.

As a member of the police force, his words still carry some weight.

Although it was quite important before, it was just a favor before and now it is official business.

In response to Fujino's request, the Megure Police Department immediately decided to send a forensic team there.

After all, a murder case like this that may have been drugged was indeed within the scope of the duties of a forcible search.

…

After a while, Miwako Sato and people from the forensics department rushed to the scene.

Fujino confessed that they did not drive a police car.

Miwako Sato was wearing a decent suit, which highlighted her figure, and following her were some forensic police officers dressed as decoration workers.

Without attracting the attention of the people around them, they quickly tested what the substances in Qianhui's air conditioner were: "Consultant Fujino, Officer Sato, the test results of the substances in the air conditioner have come out. They are diluted organic salts." pesticide."

Miwako Sato nodded and asked again: "Are you sure it's organic salt pesticide?"

"That's for sure."

The police officer from the Forensic Division flipped through the report and continued: "The initial judgment is that it was mixed with water and sprayed into the air conditioner using some kind of spray device. Although most of it has been evaporated and disappeared, judging from the surface attachments, it should be There’s nothing wrong with that.”

"Then this is a case of poisoning."

Miwako Sato was not surprised to hear this.

After all, Fujino had already confirmed that he was poisoned before coming here...

Fujino's reasoning is usually correct.

"Poison?!"

Qianhui was surprised when she heard this.

Obviously, she couldn't understand why someone would poison herself.

After all, she just moved here not long ago...

Sato, who had been vaccinated in advance, nodded, turned to Chie and asked: "You should be Chie Yoshino who lives here and is currently working as a flower art teacher in Shizuoka, right?"

"Um."

Qianhui nodded and said again: "Besides me, there is also my husband."

Sato Miwako started a routine cross-examination: "May I ask your husband's name and what kind of job he does?"

"My husband's name is Akio, and he currently works in an insurance company..."

After briefly answering the basic information, Qianhui couldn't help but ask the policeman from the forensics department: "But, why did I not have any problems when I went to the hospital for a checkup before?"

"This is very normal."

The police officer from the Forensic Division explained: "These pesticides are diluted and the smell is not too strong. Inhaling them will indeed cause the symptoms just mentioned, but after leaving the car, the effects of those symptoms will be reduced. If Without a detailed examination of the respiratory tract and blood, no residue would be found.”

Hearing this, Fujino thought for a while.

It feels like this is similar to his guess.

The strange pulse feeling before was confirmed.

Thinking of this, Fujino asked the people in the forensic class: "Will this organic salt pesticide cause any harm to the human body?"

"If it has not been diluted, then normal people may die if they inhale it in a closed space for a long time. However, what was detected in the air conditioner this time was diluted and blown out through the air conditioner. Although It can cause mild pesticide poisoning, but it won’t cause death.”

A police officer from the forensics department said: "Although it will not cause death by poisoning, if inhaled for a long time, it is very likely to cause dizziness, migraine, nausea, weakness, nerve damage, and even coma. The symptoms were in the car this time. It would be dangerous if he passed out while driving. "

Conan listened on the sidelines and interjected: "The headache that Miss Qianhui mentioned before, she fell asleep while driving and almost hit us, is it because of these pesticides?"

The policeman from the Forensic Division nodded in affirmation: "Judging from the attachments on the surface of the car air conditioner, it must have lasted for a long time, so Mrs. Yoshino would have headache symptoms even when she was not inhaling."

"If this is the case, then Miss Qianhui will be in danger..."

Xiaolan frowned: "If she suddenly faints on the way to Shizuoka, then there might be a car accident."

"It seems that the person who administered the drug was well prepared."

Holding her chin, Miwako Sato thought: "If Chie suddenly fainted while driving and died in a car accident, then it would only be considered a simple traffic accident afterwards, and the air conditioner would not be tested in detail. "

After a pause, she guessed: "If this is the case, then the prisoner must be nearby..."

"The criminal definitely wanted to use such a method to cause a car accident. This is certain. As for the identity of the murderer, we still have to catch him to confirm..."

Fujino interrupted Miwako Sato to continue speaking, and turned to look at Chie: "By the way, Miss Chie, you should be going to give a lecture at a school in Shizuoka tomorrow morning, right?"

"Um……"

Qianhui nodded and responded: "If classes are not closed tomorrow, I will indeed go to class."

Miwako Sato was stunned for a moment when she was interrupted.

She wanted to say that someone who could poison must be nearby.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to poison someone regularly without arousing suspicion.

What's more, the car is usually locked...

The only person who may have committed the crime is the male owner of the house.

Thinking of this, Sato felt that Fujino's intention was definitely not too simple, so he asked doubtfully: "Consultant Fujino, do you have any plans?"

"Well, I do have a plan."

After groaning, Fujino did not intend to reveal the identity of the murderer himself.

After all, for a wife like Qianhui, it would definitely be unacceptable if her husband was a prisoner.

A discerning person can actually guess that the culprit is Akio.

But for her, even if she thought about it, she wouldn't think so.

Tell her now and things will get more troublesome.

So, Fujino came up with a plan: "The police officer in the forensics department said that the poisoning was not done once or twice. In other words, the prisoner had been poisoning Miss Chie, otherwise he would go to Shizuoka for class every time. It’s not like everyone will have symptoms. In this case, we can wait and wait for the next morning.”

"Sit back and wait?"

After murmuring, Sato Miwako nodded and agreed with Fujino's plan: "In this case, we can catch the other party in action and also seize the crime tools at the same time."

The plan was made, and it was almost dusk in the afternoon.

Miwako Sato returned to the Metropolitan Police Department to make preparations.

Fujino drove Xiaolan Yuanzi and Conan home.

Before leaving, he also deliberately told Qianhui not to tell anyone about this matter and not to show any deliberate behavior.

Otherwise the prisoner would obviously discover the police operation.

Qianhui naturally promised not to tell anyone.

The dual titles of detective and police consultant are enough to gain the trust of ordinary people.

On the way back to the car, everyone was silent.

Fujino sat in the driver's seat and drove the car silently.

Yuanzi was the first to break the silence in the car, lowering his head and saying: "Although I don't know what happened, the person who poisoned Sister Qianhui must be her husband..."

"Um."

Fujino responded: "In this situation, he is the most consistent suspect."

"Well, looking at it now, he is the only one who is suspected, and the motive should be the 100 million yen that he received a few days ago to help offset the performance."

Conan also crossed his arms over his chest and was in a bad mood: "She went to work at a flower art school in Shizuoka, moved to a new house, and took out an insurance policy of 100 million yen. The purpose is really obvious."

Xiaolan also lowered her head, a little disappointed: "If we hadn't discovered it, wouldn't Sister Qianhui..."

"Yes, sooner or later her body will not be able to handle it anymore. If something happens on the highway, even if she is lucky enough to survive, she will inevitably suffer irreparable damage."

Fujino also said with emotion: "At that time, her husband can use that insurance to get a large amount of compensation. Even if he does not die, he can still get a considerable amount of insurance compensation, and then walk away."

"What a pitiful Miss Qianhui."

Sonoko sighed and seemed a little indignant in her words: "Obviously she is such a nice person, but that bastard killed her for 100 million yen. It's really too much!"

"Fujino-senpai."

Xiaolan looked at Fujino: "You didn't tell her who the murderer was because you were afraid that she wouldn't be able to bear it, right?"

"maybe."

After murmuring, Fujino turned and continued: "It's just that we can't make blind guesses when we haven't determined who the prisoner is yet. In short, we will be able to determine who the prisoner is tomorrow morning."

Several people chatted indignantly, but Fujino didn't say anything.

He just stared at the streets dyed red by the sunset with unusually calm eyes.

I don't know what I'm thinking about.
